Before today, my two favorite bronzers were Nars Laguna (if I felt like a little shimmer) or Benefit's Hoola. Both ran me around $30. Granted, they last a long time, but come on!
My sister, who sells mark cosmetics (Avon's sister company) pushed me to try their Bronze Pro bronzer, and promised me I would love it. She also did me a favor and signed me up to be a mark rep...not that I'm going to sell it, but as a rep, you get 35-40% off all your purchases. So I got this already cheap $10 bronzer for $7! (Along with a bunch of other stuff I will be reviewing later!)
Anyway, back to Bronze Pro- I love it! This is my second mark review (see my review on Make it Big Mascara) and they have yet to let me down! I purchased it in the Bronze color, which gave my pale skin a sunny glow. The compact design is great...the case flips open, has a mirror in the top lid, and a brush stored underneath the bronzer! I expected the brush to be crap and was planning on using my Dior bronzer brush I've had forever, but the mark brush was super soft and it's flat
design really spread the product well!
The bronzer itself has no shimmer, but it's not a flat matte that leaves skin looking dirty either. I am buying this from now on! Besides Bronze, which is the medium color, it also comes in pro glow (which reviews on the site say is perfect for very fair skin to add a hint of golden shimmer) and Pro Golden which is great for darker skin tones.
If any of you out there would like a discount on mark, I highly recommend becoming a rep! It costs $10, and you get free stuff to try when you sign up. Even if you don't sell it, you'll get 35-40% off everything you buy!
